[QUOTE="JTH, post: 1556590, member: 59647"] I’ve had similar results with the 143 ELD-X on a whitetail, 100 yard broadside lung shot (right behind the shoulder) Complete separation, jacket weighing 3 grains was barely poking through the off side. Buck ran about 50 yards in thick cover (cedar swamp) without a drop of blood. I expected a pass through and blood trail, had neither. Similar results on a mule deer at 250 yards, bullet was not recovered but no exit wound on a broadside shot. Killed a whitetail last year at about 350 yards and the performance was better. Very interested to read through all of this as I’d prefer a bullet that dependably delivers two holes and decent expansion, not explosion. [/QUOTE]
